There is no confirmation as yet on where in Broward the carnival will be. I dont believe they will use/can use that park where they had the launching yesterday.

I've been to both and for the last 3 yrs only do Broward.

It is a much better enviorment the police are more laid back because the majority of them are from the caribbean and are aware of the culture.

Broward has more costume bands so you get a nicer parade on the road.

The venues have more of a family oriented feel to them and are econmical ,it was only $5 last year to get in and will probably me the same again this year.

Still a shame that a relatively small carnival like Florida has to be split..
